| I anm selecting records from a table, I am selecting on record_id. Some of the record Id's start with 'wh' e.g. WH0945. I want to select everything from the table except any records whose record_id starts with 'WH'.Anyone know how to do this.Thanks,macca |

select * from urtable where record_id not like 'wh%'or record_id is nullif you accept NULL for record_id value. And if you have a case sensitive collation, you will have to take care of that too. E 12°55'05.63"N 56°04'39.26" |
